AIM data via CAN-bus (to dashes, dataloggers)

Order [CAN_Dash] with AIM-AIM option:

35 bytes (0..34) are sent in 5 CAN-frames, CAN-ID 0x6F0..0x6F4, see

[aim protocol data content]

Some notable channels (See 1.2.38 on GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges )

It is practical to send data in this format to configurable dataloggers, instruments, dash.


Message format (see AIM pdf for more info) (note: units might need review, especially temperature; 16bit = 2 byte values have low byte first = little endian unless otherwise noted)


Note : VEMS also supports AIM via serial, via 1st or 2nd RS232 port; it has similar datarate as via CAN, and practical to broadcast to an arbitrary number of receivers, see:


V1.0.0.0 VEMS AIM CAN DBC - Based on above information and PDF scaling , aids users to get AIM2CAN working when loaded with AIM2AIM. For viewing Kvaser Database Editor is free and easy to use

V1.0.1.0 VEMS AIM CAN DBC - TODO : VEMS can you specify exactly the bit locations for the Errors channel, this can be setup then in the DBC file specifically as bit indications which many platforms support.
